Dear Wild Fly Productions team,  
I've watched a couple of your videos and love them! Discovering our world through fly fishing is the way! Please carry on! 
This way, gentlemen...
Greetings from Switzerland

Well done Will. You & Scottie are a couple of the best film makers in fly fishing. Always look forward to watching the next video.

You crushed it dude! So cool to collaborate with you on this. Can’t wait for the next trip 🤟🏻

Such a wonderful philm (see what I did there?? lol). Scottie is a legend and will do some big things for sure. Thanks for putting this together.

Great video. Hope this finds you well. I'm not much of a fisherman but I really enjoy your channel. I am from western NC. I see you are familiar with the area. My favorite place on earth is Fires Creek, located in the Nantahala NF right outside of Murphy, NC. I see people fishing there often. You can drive many miles of the creek for easy access. Also lots of place to camp next to the water. Something to think k about if you are ever back east looking for beautiful water. Take care.

Scottie your video's are the best and come across so cool and natural with no agenda but fly fishing fun! I would like to see more fly fishing video's with Scottie and Mr. Phelps. I really dig the work you guys do. Looking forward to more video's in 2022. Thank you!

Dudes! I freaking loved this. I love how Scottie said, “there isn’t a script for this. “ You both in my eyes are trailblazers and putting out stuff that makes the dreamers dream!

[TechAssuranceATL]

Well done Will. Props to both you and Scotty for pursuing your passions, especially while your young

So proud of you two young men; y’all are freakin rockin it! When I was in school in North Ga, I was shooting film in a Nikon F3, FM2 and a Hasselblad ELX…. A far cry different from what y’all shoot today! Keep doin what y’all do!!!!

[stealthswim]

I just love the style that wild fly shoots. His films always keep me glued to the whole video. I look forward to each release!

[Jadesfishing]

Watch for those rattle snakes!!! Hahaha nice video man loved it. It’s good to know that the journey doesn’t happen overnight.

[loydtruss]

This video shows you have graduated into the elite club when it comes to filming and fly fishing for trout!! Watch you guys all the time and this is one of your best videos---thanks for sharing

[CrazyAboutFlyFishing]

Great to hear the story of the man and portrayed so well. Really enjoy your films

[mikekrol]

Scottie-- You are certainly wise beyond your years. The more videos I watch on YouTube, the more I appreciate your work. I'll be checking out more vids from Phelpsonthefly now. I pray that you guys stay prolific; I can't imagine not being able to watch a fresh WildFly Productions video with my morning coffee and my attack Pomeranian on my lap. Thanks for adding to the beauty of this world. Always a fan. Hope to see you soon.

[johnnylaan]

[dankochanek]

Scottie, you sure have come a long ways. I've pretty much followed you from the beginning. And Will is right there with you. Looking forward
to meeting you in person in Golden, Co in October !! Cheers!!

[Steve_Balboni]

Great video Will! I really like how you exposed the heart of a true angler and the magic that comes with fishing.

Wow! This is amazing! I've been following Scottie for a while so I really appreciate this film. The skills you guys have are incredible and you're both an inspiration to me! I wish I had more time to dedicate to honing the filming craft! You two make a ridiculous team... need to do more
